After Joanne Vickers and deranged ex-soldier Andy Bishop go on a killing spree murdering clubbers and a shop-keeper, they are cornered at another robbery. The girl shoots the older controlling boyfriend. Joanne's lawyer Phyllis Gladstone argues that her client was bullied and coerced by Bishop into being his accomplice.

Helped by Alesha, Jake needs to dig into Joanne's past if he is to get his desired verdict.
